Overview

Penn & Sons Roofing had been operating for over 15 years and had built a large customer list through repeat work and referrals.
Once a job was finished, however, there was no structured follow-up.

Customers simply disappeared unless they called again themselves.

Challenge

  • No reminders or follow-ups after completed work

  • Customers forgot who they used previously

  • New work relied on fresh enquiries only

  • Owner manually tried to keep in touch but it never lasted

They didn’t need more leads.
They needed their existing customers to remember them.

Solution

We built a simple SMS reactivation system targeting:

  • Customers from the last 12–36 months

  • Seasonal reminders tied to roof maintenance

  • Follow-ups sent automatically from their domain

No CRM change.
No new software for staff to learn.

Results

  • Past customers replied within days

  • Repeat bookings booked without advertising

  • Follow-ups ran consistently without the owner’s involvement

The database became an asset instead of dead weight.
